Strela (beer)

Strela

Strela is a Cape Verdean beer, produced by the Sociedade Cabo-verdiana de Cerveja e Refrigerantes (SCCR).

It is sold in bottles of 25cl, 33cl, and 1 litre, also in kegs of 20 and 50 litres. Its production was begun in 2006, starting on the Ilha de Santiago, Ilha de São Vicente and Ilha do Sal. In the future, it is planned to be distributed in the other islands of the archipelago, as well as in other countries, in order to reach the Cape Verdean diaspora market.[1] It is already exported to Gambia, where a major Coca Cola plant is located (SCCR being a Coca Cola entity), in a market that demonstrates a demand for beer sales.[2]

The label has a dark blue base with a gold border, and the word Strela written at the centre in white letters.
